Abstract

This article is a review of Anita Jarzyna’s book Post-koiné. Studia o nieantropocentrycznych językach (poetyckich) [Post-koiné. Studies in Non-anthropocentric (Poetic) Languages]. The reviewer discusses the literary material upon which the book’s analysis focuses; the interdisciplinary theoretical basis used by the scholar; the theme of memory, particular the possibilities
of writing a “shared” universal history without excluding animals; and, last but not least, the theme of the emotional nature of animals, the possibility of representing it in literature, and the question of the place which animals inhabit in language.
